President Goodluck Jonathan has said the recent successes recorded
by his administration against the Boko Haram and other developmental
projects in the North-east and other parts of the country showed that he
is the candidate competent enough to earn a second term.
Speaking at the PDP rally in Damaturu, Yobe State, Thursday,
Jonathan assured the federal government would no longer concede any part
of Nigeria to the Boko Haram or any other militant group while boasting
that his influence in victories against Boko Haram forces warrants a
second term for him.
Addressing PDP supporters, Jonathan said the federal government was committed to ending the Boko Haram insurgency and other security issues affecting the country, Daily Trust reports.
Jonathan however said the country is not yet completely safe from the Boko Haram militancy.

Jonathan first landed at the Air Force Base in Maiduguri where he was received by Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno State.
He then boarded a military helicopter that took him to Damaturu which is 120 kilometers away and was received at the August Stadium by top PDP stalwarts including the gubernatorial candidate of the party in the state, Adamu Maina Waziri.

Speaking when he visited the Emir of Damaturu, Alhaji Shehu
Hashemu II, the president said Nigeria was not completely safe from
terrorist activities as some of them are living with the people.
The president condoled the people of Yobe State and families that lost relations to terrorist activities.
He reassured of his administration’s commitment to wiping out the sect completely from the North-east and the rest of the country.
However the President said that Yobe State had been cleared of the Boko Haram terrorist. Though the president did not announce it, the military had earlier announced that Adamawa State had been cleared of the insurgents leaving Borno State as the only state still under the control of the group
